Talk:X-Men: Phoenix - Warsong
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Are they clones, or are they emma's daughters?
i think they're emma's daughters since they were formed using emma's eggs.
- That's right, using an egg (or sperm) cell won't give you a clone because it contains only half of a person's DNA. -- Noneofyourbusiness 22:46, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
Actually, the answer could be both yes and no:
they have to be Emma's offspring (not her clones) due to the aforementioned reason above; but they could quite possibly be clones of each other. Whether all of them are clones is another issue up for debate: if Subline stone thousands of ova, he could've created thousands of different phenotypical offspring and only cloned some of them to be duplicate copies (i.e. the 5n1). Cloning every single one of them may not have been an efficient idea, as a single offshoot might not have inherited the specific/strongest aspects of Emma's psionic potential. Ergo, some of the offspring may be clones of each other, but some may be as different as any other set of non-identical sisters would be; the comic simple hasn't yet specified.
[edit] Third?
Where was it stated that there would be a third story? Just curious. Did the writer or Joe Quesada or an editor actually reveal this, or is it just speculation that the Phoenix minis will be a trilogy?
